$ETH The Pakistan Super League (PSL) is mainly held in Pakistan, but the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has played an important role in its early seasons. When the league was launched in 2016, matches were hosted in Dubai, Sharjah, and Abu Dhabi because of security concerns in Pakistan at the time.
From 2016 to 2018, most PSL matches took place in the UAE. Even after some matches started returning to Pakistan, the UAE continued to host a few games, including playoffs and finals. In 2020 and 2021, parts of the PSL were again held in the UAE due to COVID-19 restrictions and logistical issues in Pakistan.
However, in recent years, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has made efforts to host the entire tournament within Pakistan to promote cricket at home and engage local fans. The goal has been to bring international cricket back to Pakistan completely.
In conclusion, while the UAE has been a temporary host for the PSL in the past, especially during times of difficulty, the tournament is now primarily held in Pakistan.
